so you're looking for a long tube header ONLY? Call hytech then and see what their lead time is. best bet. No point in us narrowing down your options when you're not narrowing them down yourself

I called and got mine within a week and a half. I also know of another member fairly local to me that did the same.

if you go short header to same size TP as the headers collector arnt you basically getting a longtube header? Thats what I did, I have a comptech header (which is said to be very good for SC'd S2ks btw) which has a 63.5mm collector and I have a 63.5mm Berk Test Pipe, so minus the bolt on from header to testpipe, I, in theory now have a longtube header.

Maybe the only reason Hytech is said to get much better gains than any other headers is since its a longtube, your basically comparing a 'header+tp' to a 'header' set up. While to see if the longtube header is really better than other short tube headers, you should compare gains between the Hytech longtube and other short tube + TP setups. Of course longtube vs. short tube+cat will yield longtube makes MUCH more hp, your taking out the cat, which is where alot of power is going to be coming from.

^^ Just a thought that I literally just thought of
